Love the Lights Out maps. When I first played Lights Out Offices I was like "Oh, it'll just be more dim, no big deal."

No, it really is lights out. Having a Support or two (or twenty) on your team is essential.

I remember playing all the lights out maps in WTF mod.

The first time we all did it, we wiped wave 1, but soon we figured it out, and we usually either win, or get around wave 10 now:D

And thats also when you realize that glowsticks arent that useless after all.

custom events?

Those two words will always get me somewhat curious.

Well, nothing special, Im not as experienced as Fel with the events.

I was just thinking of adding some scare traps here and there, like lights going out when you least expect it. If youve checked the basement in Manor theres one example of an event I set up but its not exactly that scary just a nice feature. Altho Im not exactly sure wether specimens can trigger it aswell? I have to check that.

Sorry, what is it? I can never find a server with lights-out maps except wtfmod.

So what happens in the basement? Events, no matter small, fascinate me for some reason.

Hmm, now that I think of it I havent actually tested wether the event works online (because sometimes they wont, apparently).

One of the generators or what ever they are is supposed to explode and set on fire, which also provides a small light source in the basement. Assuming you have dynamic lights on.

I sometimes run a listen server with them, but nobody except friends who already have the map ever join it. Probably the 10kb/s upload cap.

As for Manor, once heard a loud "clanging" noise when I walked past a certain spot, and only had a brief second to investigate - looked like a part of the fence came off and fell on the floor, but that might be in the default map.
Never saw a light.. even with dynamic lights turned on.

Hmm well I'll have to check the map online at some point. Maybe I have to set up my pub server back on >_>

Oh and one reason why they dont join the server running my maps is because most of them arent whitelisted lol. I dont really want to whitelist them until I feel like they are finished.

Could you, in theory, attach an event to make anyone who uses the EBR spontaneously combust?;)

You could probably just program the EBR to explode the user when shooting the gun, like the Self destruct item in WTFmod. Although i'm not completely sure it would work since i think the Self Destruct item is just a modified pipe bomb.

Currently Im working on polishing my version of west london, and even adding new rooms and areas which hopefully provide some alternative placed to hold in instead of the typical tunnel or the big fence. In fact Ive succesfully prevented players from camping there with some added spawns and routes for specimens. For example theres gonna be a hole in one of the tunnels and some more custom events here and there.

Now that is going to be really scary. Not only will there be no lights, but the map won't be the same.....and there will be some surprises for you.

As long as you include that black-vine room from Silent Hill 2 I'll be satisfied;)

I might if you give me a link cause Im not exactly sure what you mean.

So far Ive added access upstairs in the police station and some new rooms downstairs, in addition to the new spawns and the hole in the tunnel I mentioned. Sadly tho, the face of the building is on big static mesh so I cant add any windows to shoot out from :-(. That was also a problem with the tunnel which is a static mesh too apart from the floor.

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated, as long as they are realistic (meaning they fit in with the theme and arent too hard to implement.

Heres the room (also, I said wrong silent hill:eek:).

YouTube - Silent Hill 3 storeroom.[/URL]

And you don't really have to implement it, I meant it as a joke really (could you do this with KF? I doubt it, but I may be wrong)

Ill try to find some easier-to-implement ideas in the meantime:D
